Forget Me Not Fudge - Foodie Friday

From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...This is a really simple recipe and because candy is such an integral part of our Valentine's Day celebrations, I thought this would be the perfect time for this delicious spiked fudge to make its debut. The recipe uses just six ingredients and consistently produces a rich, smooth fudge that's never grainy. The recipe was developed by Maker's Mark Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey. If you prefer, you can substitute one teaspoon of vanilla extract for the small amount of bourbon used in the recipe. If you're looking for a chocolate confection to make for someone special, look no further. Once you've assembled the ingredients, you'll need about 10 minutes to make the fudge. It's necessary to keep it in a cool spot for 6 to 8 hours to set before cutting. This recipe makes a lot of fudge, so round up friends to share it with or cut the recipe in half. Here's how the fudge is made.

Directions:1) Combine sugar and evaporated milk in a large (4-quart) saucepan. Bring to a boil over moderate heat. Boil for exactly 6 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.2) Add chocolate morsels, butter, bourbon and pecans. Mix well with a wooden spoon.3) Pour into a well-greased 9 x 13-inch pan. Smooth top. Allow to set in a cool place for 6 to 8 hours. Cut into 1 x 1-inch squares.

Mary, this looks like a hard fudge to forget! It looks so creamy and rich.

My paternal grandmother was a "one-recipe" pony.... all she could make was fudge, but what a fabulous fudge it was. Your recipe is very similar. I will have to make some in her memory. Many many thanks...

I like this recipe except one small problem I have not been able to find evaporated milk here in Croatia! One time I went to the market and saw a picture of a cow on the can and got so excited that I had found it only to come home and have my hubby explain that it was goulash!!! (I can't read croatian yet) so do you offer any alternatives for the evaporated milk?

I agree with Michael, this deserves the Oscar! Perfect to help me celebrate Valentine's Day! Thanks for the offer of "Cousin Vinnie" yesterday...I'll pass that along to dau. Stephanie in TX. Hope you have a Happy Valentine's Day Sweetie!
